MIYABI strives for perfection with Kaizen—Japanese for “improvement” or “change for the better.” This collection of knives combines the best hardening technology with the artistry of traditional Japanese craftsmanship.
This 2-piece set includes the reliable, small-scale 6-inch chef’s knife for chopping, slicing, dicing, and mincing. The 3.5-inch paring knife is a small, versatile, and nimble blade for smaller tasks like peeling vegetables, creating garnishes, and segmenting citrus.
The resilient core of VG10 super steel is protected by a stunning 64-layer flower Damascus pattern. The CRYODUR® blades feature exceptional sharpness and durability thanks to their innovative, ice-hardening treatment. Then, artisans hand-hone the blades with the historic 3-step Honbazuke method.
Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, Kaizen scalpel-like blades are balanced by a refined handle made of black linen Micarta. With a wood-like texture, the comfortable handle won’t slip from your hand and acts as a moisture repellent.
